+Background
+==========
 This directory contains an RTEMS application for measuring TCP/UDP
 network throughput.   The ttcp_orig subdirectory contains the original
 UNIX program which can be compiled and run on your host machine.

 running under RTEMS with no changes to the test program itself.  The
 entire UNIX source file is included, without changes, into the RTEMS
 source file.

+Running TTCP
+============
+To test throughput from Host to RTEMS target:
+
+1) Download and start the ttcp program on the Target.
+2) In response to the `ttcp' prompt, type `-s -r'.  The meaning of these
+flags is described in the ttcp.1 documentation.
+3) On the host run `ttcp -s -t <<insert the hostname or IP address of
+the Target here>>'

+or IP address of the Host here>>'.  You need to type the IP address of
+the host unless you've got your Target talking to your Domain Name
+Server.
+
+To change the number of buffers, the buffer size, etc. you just add the
+extra flags to the `-t' machine as specified in the ttcp.1 manual page.
